The strut by the pivot, I do believe, is the pole acting at the 45 degree angle. Could you please explain what forces those may be? I know that one must be Fw or Force of weight.
1. Find the tension in the guy wire and the force on the strut by the pivot.

I think Fwsin30 and Fwsin40 is applicable here to find tension.The Attempt at a Solution
The information provided is EXTREMELY vague in my opinion...

Ah yes, quite a familiar problem. The workings should not be too hard. I believe that the equation is x/L=lambda/d, if I'm not mistaken, unless that is a predefined equation designated by your instructor specifically for this problem...

Thank you. That was exactly what my best guess looked like as well. Some of the questions on these homeworks are outrageous. I wish they gave more information.
I suppose it is more of a best guess type of thing. What would your best guess be when drawing a light beam coming in? Where would it bounce to? Where would it exit?
